When you're setting the input level make sure that the gains are set to as close to zero as possible and the output level from your mixing desk is as high as possible BUT NOT peaking the reds. This will ensure that you get the best signal to noise ratio out of Breakaway.

Right right understood, I was initially going to use XLR’s instead of the 6.5mm’s to connect to the UR22 but the XLR input is reserved for Mic level inputs whereas the 1/4inch jack input can handle a line level inputs, I’ll keep this in mind though, Also Brian, PM me, I need to have a chat! Thanks
